Some anime recommendations:

My Neighbour Totoro - Hayao Miyazaki (1988): Ostensibly a children's film, this is actually quite sensitive and beautifully made, with memorable dream-like imagery.
Akira - Katsuhiro Otomo (1988): A cyberpunk masterpiece that builds to a batshit insane second half.
Perfect Blue - Satoshi Kon (1997): As suspenseful and frenetic as a Hitchcock thriller, as surreal and mind-bending as Lynch's best; the direction is brilliant and tightly controlled even as it feels like the film is flying off the rails.

Last two are probably more likely to make it to 7.3+/10; first one might be 7/10 at least for you although I myself consider it an 8.

Ha, I've never commented over here on your movies. I like that you have a couple Altman movies on your list, he's one of the best, but you don't have my favorite, which is "The Player".

I'm in a Metafilm class right now, and I'm writing a paper on that one.

We had to watch The Player in film school. It was for screenwriting class, of course, because it's a terrific script for its plot and character development, while at the same time showcases the realities of how difficult it is to make it as a screenwriter. The Player is my #1 Altman film for sure, though McCabe and Mrs. Miller isn't far behind.
